Stop question paper leaks

The culture of question paper leak of public and competitive examinations is not new. The question paper leak of the 33rd Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS) examination has brought before us some long-lasting problems which need to be resolved urgently. The incident definitely pointed to some age-old flaws in the system. BPSC did not take any initiative to find out the persons involved. According to some reports of the newspapers, Exam Controller (cadre) of BPSC AYM Nesar Uddin told that they have a rule to print the question papers only in the state-owned BG press. This rule needs to be amended. It is known to people that the BG press has a vicious circle of corrupt quarters that are involved in such kind of illegal activities, although the authorities concerned refute such kind of claims. It would be better if some sets of question papers can be printed in other presses under strict supervision. The PSC should take immediate measures to find out the people involved in the crime and also take steps to stop question paper leaks in future.
